Looks like the area right after the fountain headed to the World Showcase. There are some kiosks that sell T-Shirts, clip clops and such in this area. They change this area out for Food & Wine Festival.

The dead give away is the monorail track in the background. The only park the monorail runs through is Epcot. Unless there's a secret monorail I don't know about.

Did a little more research.

Here's a link showing the same area at Epcot. http://disneydose.com/phineas-and-fe...#axzz2AN66rcoQ

There's the rub, I cant see that track in the little pic on P-bucket, but now, yep dere it is. Not sure how my order got mixed up in p bucket, but that's no surprise.

Did anyone else sing this line when reading? I ain't too proud to admit I like Abba.

Back in our boating days, I helped my buddy put in a stereo in his 24 foot Old wooden cabin cruiser,,, and I INSISTED that if I help him, he gets a tape player with WATTS,,, and lots of them,,, speakers are secondary. Well, after putting this puppy in there with 6 speakers,, it rocked allright. And I got to hear,, not long after, Smidgy too, The ABBA greatest hits tape for two summers in a row,,, and he made sure he used those WATTS.

My favorite part was when he missed a step one night, and turned off the main pier onto the small pier to get back in his boat, ONE STEP too soon.

KERPLUNK!

AT that precise moment when I heard the splash, (he was in the slip next to me), was ABBA singing on his/ OUR, new stereo sound system,,, " There was something in the air/ WATER, last night, Fernando.

[smidgy]

ok, I'll do my best. tee hee

nebo actually had NO IDEA who phinneas and furb are!!! what kind of Grandpa is that?! gasp!


but they are situated at epcot, exactly where Tman said they are.

ok, the evening we strolled oer to AOA? our intention was to "sneak into the nomo pool area with our "loaded" mugs, and sit poolside for a while.

weather didn't allow it. we got a seat at a table by the splash area, but, soon the life guards were shushing us all away. well, we "shushed" our way towrads the pool bar, and, as nebo said, there were a couple people sitting there. so we joined them.

and he was right. I could see righ taway that they were hoping to go home early. as a bartender, I remember those nights well. dead night. . weather bad. hardly any tips , at least I'll gethome early tonight.. maybe I'll even beat the storm home... NOPE!!!! there's always that annoyinglast customer...

HEY!!!! glad I caught you!!! STILL OPEN??? OH OBOY!"" aren't you glad to SEE me? bet you thought you wouldn't have any business tonight, but here I am!! in my experience, they say : listen to my dumb jokes , and I "might" tip you a dollar, maybe two.

anyhow, we didn't make martin stay open any longer than he had to, cause there were other customers. turns out he was a very cute , young gay guy who used to work at wilderness lodge. ..... how do I know that? (nebo never gets this.. I do.. I have very good Gaydar) and I left him a very good tip. (nebo gets mad at my tipping. he is a good tipper, but sometimes those of us in the "biz" tend to overtip.. to make up for all the cheapstakes")

ok.. now I will backtrack.....


I didn't post about ANimal Kingdom. in a lot of ways it was a great day. we had a lot of fun... we weren't worried about the time. we just did whatever we wanted to.. kimmy had the magical "app".

normally nebo and I would have been planning out the "shows" because , since AK is such a short day anyway, and there are a few shows, you really have to plan.

and we have the extra added ADR at tusker house. now, I knwe this would have annoyed Nebo to no end, but.. he wasn't here so decided to just... GASP! let6 the kids decide what they wanted to do

well, besides doing the 2 big rides (the safari and expedition everst)twice and doing the stupid tusker house lunch, ,and waiitng in line for the stupid kali river rapids for 110 minutes. we did everything!! except for the bird show. ok not the trails..

I'm so far behind on the chatter, but I did catch your new chapter.

I'm so sorry (again) that you were having such a disappointing trip. It seems to me that Todd would have picked up on how badly you wanted to enjoy the trip with Jackson, or at the very least would have learned to listen to dear old dad's advice.

Your secret is safe with me, though I sincerely doubt that this will be your last foray into the children's menu now that you know how good a value it can be.

[smidgy]

somehow, I early on, convinced them to do the Lion king show.


that was a big mistake..... I guess I never realized how much of a musical that is.. now, nebo and I love musicals... and I guess we are a couple of softies. ....

NOTE: to ANYONE bringing newbies to Disney. :
whatever musicals, fireworks,illuminations, songs, parades, etc etc. bring you and your hubby to tears....

um they wont' get it..

now, normally steve and I are sipping on our sunny d's , listening to the pleasant notes of circle of life. trying to not let the other see the tears on our cheeks.

well. I guess they liked it.

normally , that would be the case. the problem here is that , in the USA, they think it is normal for fathers to only get to spend time with their children every other weekend.

[smidgy]

since our son is divorced, he only gets to see his son every other weekend,, and a couple weeks in the summer. whoopee! oh, and a week in dec and a week in spring.. wow!

and we , as grandparents, get the shaft, also!

anyhow, my point here is that Todd was also trying to make as much time as possible with his SON , and was also allowing us, grandma and grandpa, into that "alloted" time.

[smidgy]

and he was sharing the little time he had with his son with us.

Haven't read the last chapter yet, but...

True. I swim corrected.

I forgot that at AK, while in line for Kali, Jackson and I were leaning against the big rock walls. then the kids behind us started doing that and their mom said "kids, stayaway from those walls, they're dirty" I thought, "sheesh, so the kids get a little dirty" but then she said "they smell" ...

so I sniff, and sure enough she's right! me: "Jackson, get away from that yucky wall!" it stund of urine! yup. someones kids had to go potty while in line, so they let him pee on the rocks. boy , was I indebted to that mom!

now I knowit's a long line and all, but if kid has to go, tell the people in front of you and behind you and go and come back.. I know this is a sore subject on the Dis, but I would have no problem letting someone take there kid to the bathroom and get back in line. I know some complain about it. better that then let them pee in line.

so we made new best freinds on that lng line. kim and todd talked to the guy in front, who was also a teacher, and Jackson and I talked to the nice family with 2 kids behind us. then Jackson played games on kim's phone a lot. boy, I'm really starting to like those smart phones!

so we didn't get to sit in a tub with any of our new best friends! I started taking my shoes off, Jackson started to copy Grandma, the CM said, "no you have to leave your shoes on" so while I was putting them back on (stupid me) we somehow lost our "group". darn! we'll never see them again! and we shared SO much!

There, that's all that matters.

Your secret is safe with me, though I sincerely doubt that this will be your last foray into the children's menu now that you know how good a value it can be.

I/m still not quite sure on the concept of how evil it is to order off the kids menu as an adult. Sometimes
you just want a little bit to eat and don't want to waste food, you know? So, is this stealing? Am I morally bankrupt and a useless bane on society?
Or does anybody else do this with out feeling the guilts, or pretending it's for their own kids?
Come on, talk to me! I want to do it again but without the fear that they are going to take away my Mouse ears.

Wait, are you saying that Todd and I need to spend more time together? We'll kill each other!

I am OCD every Sunday with the comics section trying to find ALL 6 differences between the two pictures.

I love Mission Space but have found that as I get, um, less young I can't handle it the way I used to. I can do the orange side once but if I try it a second time in the same day I'm in trouble. I don't vomit (thankfully) but my head continues to spin for quite a while after I'm off the ride.

We need a Linda Blair smiley with the head spinining around.

..

Oh of course I know those two, and all too well. When we go back now in late November, Test Track still won't be open because it's not phinneas, it's still being furbed.

Fine, give away my personal emotional secrets and how I even cry when Ursula sings her song during Little Mermaid.

On the subject of P&F, my brother-in-law has had to watch it too many times with my neice and nephews so he lovingly calls the show um... Male body part that starts with a P and Fur. Not very appropriate or PC but funny!

Order what ever you want to eat. Who is going to stop you from paying for something that you want.

The only time it should be an issue is when you are an adult on any of the dining plans.

If you are paying cash, you should be able to order anything you want. It is no different than purchasing a snack.

ok, coming out of lurkdom to confess that I love getting kids Mickey waffles for breakfast. It's the perfect size, and they don't usually sell them in adult meals. I seem to think it consisted of two little waffles, one sausage, one bacon slice, an apple sauce, and a small milk for under $5! Everyday that starts with Mickey waffles is bound to be a great day.

No one has ever denied me the waffles, so I assume it's ok.
